Hey, friends and family welcome to the Mechler Minute where I’ll bring you guys up to speed. Two months out of ten. Can’t believe that I’ve been at CMTS for two months now. Time does fly when having fun.
For my first month I was stationed with Doug Sylva in the Auto body shop in the afternoons. Here I learn many different tools and what they are used for. Our first project was a minivan for a local pastor who had an accident. Doug pulled the frame chains and compression and I helped weld a few pieces and fixed a shop chair. Later we painted a team member’s bumper after sanding and filling it with body filler.
Every Mondays and Tuesdays mornings, me and Isaac have Bible classes and Wednesday through Friday we help the mission with writing newsletters or cleaning the office.
Last month I was in the Warehouse with Justin Darnell. In the warehouse there are shelves of donated stuff for different ministries where they come and pick stuff out. We also send shipping containers to different countries(Belize, Uganda, Saint Vincent, and much more). While in the warehouse I was trained in operating a forklift and a skid steer. I also made three gaylords (pallet boxes) for stuff to go into and placed on shelves.
Two weeks ago me and the guys went on a week-long camping trip at a local camp where we dove into God’s word and spent time with each other in the pond and around camp fires. We helped the camp by doing various jobs getting the camp back to a less of a jungle.
About to start up working with Mike and Ray and helping them around the mission with building maintenance and groundskeeping.
Thanks to all who supported me and continue to. Thanks to my family and the CMTS staff. “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.” Colossians 4:2
In this together,
